Commodity Brokerage
& Deal Structuring
OUR CORE FUNCTION
Connect credible producers and sellers with suitable international buyers through carefully structured brokerage transactions. We focus on opportunities where supply, demand, pricing, and logistics align in a realistic and executable manner.
Each deal is approached with a structured methodology:
-
Assessing producer capacity, consistency, and quality
-
Understanding buyer requirements, specifications, and delivery timelines
-
Structuring pricing, volumes, and delivery terms that work for all parties
-
Ensuring contractual clarity and alignment before execution begins
This disciplined approach allows us to reduce uncertainty, manage expectations, and protect the integrity of the transaction from the outset.
Producer & Supply-
Side Representation
We work closely with African producers, miners, and sellers to help them access global markets more effectively. Many producers face challenges such as limited market access, lack of buyer networks, or difficulty navigating international trade standards.
Seriti supports producers by:
-
Identifying suitable off-take partners and end-users
-
Aligning product specifications with market demand
-
Advising on packaging, volumes, and delivery structures
-
Positioning supply in a way that enhances long-term marketability
Our goal is to help producers move beyond opportunistic sales and into sustainable, repeatable trade relationships.
Buyer Sourcing &
Market Access
On the demand side, we work with international buyers seeking reliable African-sourced commodities. We prioritise buyers with a clear understanding of African supply chains and realistic expectations around timelines, logistics, and pricing.
We assist buyers by:
-
Sourcing verified, compliant supply
-
Providing transparency around origin, quality, and logistics
-
Coordinating inspections, sampling, and specifications
-
Supporting smooth execution from contract to delivery
By acting as a trusted intermediary, we reduce friction, improve communication, and enhance confidence on both sides of the trade.
Logistics Coordination
& Execution Oversight
Execution is where many commodity deals succeed or fail. Seriti places strong emphasis on logistics planning and coordination, ensuring that each transaction is operationally sound.
Our involvement includes:
-
Evaluating road, rail, and port options
-
Coordinating with transporters, depots, and terminals
-
Aligning delivery schedules with production and shipment timelines
-
Identifying risks early and implementing mitigation strategies
This hands-on oversight ensures that logistical realities are built into the deal structure rather than treated as an afterthought.
Transaction Support
& Stakeholder
Coordination
Transaction Support & Stakeholder Coordination
Commodity deals involve multiple stakeholders — producers, buyers, transporters, inspectors, financiers, and port operators. Seriti acts as a central coordination point, ensuring alignment and clear communication throughout the process.
We provide ongoing support by:
-
Facilitating communication between all parties
-
Monitoring progress against agreed milestones
-
Addressing operational or commercial challenges as they arise
-
Supporting transactions through to final delivery and completion
This coordination reduces delays, misunderstandings, and execution risk.
Quality Control &
Compliance Support
Consistency and compliance are critical in bulk commodities. Seriti works alongside inspection agencies, laboratories, and compliance partners to support quality assurance throughout the transaction.
This may include:
-
Coordinating sampling and testing
-
Verifying specifications against contract requirements
-
Ensuring documentation accuracy and traceability
-
Supporting compliance with buyer, regulatory, and export standards
Our focus is on maintaining transparency and protecting the credibility of the supply chain.
